One Long Halloween Post

So if I was smart, I would have kept up with my blog and had separate entries for all the fun Halloween stuff we did, but instead you get to read one long post with everything Halloween! Our first "event" was a neighborhood block party with our friends the Henkels. This was the first time we put Max in his Buzz costume and he seemed fine with it. It did have gloves and boots, but he only wore those for one picture, but they weren't necessary for the effect of the costume! He has loved watching Toy story...1 and 2 for the past month and we would ask him what buzz says and his version came out "innity..beeon!!!" It's really cute. He speaks very well for a 2 year old, but he just didn't care about the little words in the phrase "To infinity and Beyond!"

PUMPKIN PATCH

We had a few plans to go to various pumpkin patches this year, but ended up with a two for one coupon at a little local place and called it good! Max still loved seeing all the pumpkins and kept trying to pick them all up! He was getting grumpy by the time we tried some cute photos with the wheelbarrow.

CARVING PUMPKINS

This year Max was a little more involved in the carving of the pumpkins...no knives of course! He thought it was fun sticking his spoon in them though and even touched some of the "pumpkin guts!" Overall we were proud of our carvings and Max loved seeing "jack" everyday on our porch. He got to watch all of "Nightmare before Christmas"! He loves saying Jack every time he saw him, but really only lasted about 15 minutes...too bad for mom :-( Maybe next year...or for Christmas! (for those of you who don't know, that is my favorite movie)!WARD HALLOWEEN PARTYWe had a lot of fun at our ward Halloween party. Max got to play with some of his little friends and run around crazy. Here are our friends the Morris' in their pirate gear. Max just loves baby Logan, and I have a feeling even when they are 5 and 4 he will still be "baby Logan" Here is Max in the Costume Parade, I think he is trying to figure out who is calling his name!

HALOWEEN NIGHT

We didn't take many picture on Halloween Night, we were too busy trying to keep up with our older cousin Payton and saying "trick or Treat". Here are some pics when we ran into Max' friend Hannah. Overall we had a great Halloween, and we even decided to give Max three pieces of his candy this year...(we usually don't give him sugar) He thought that was great! Soon he is going to catch on that he has a lot more candy than that and not let us pass it back out...I am not sure what we will do then...we will just wait and see :-)
